Abstract

Described herein are methods and systems for stabilizing a laser on a moving platform with multiple modes of frequency generation using multiple sensors for sensing different frequencies of motion of the laser on the moving platform. The systems and methods use a processor to provide a plurality of feedback loops, comparisons, and/or combinations of data from the multiple sensors to create a set of correction data that is used to direct the laser output via a laser pointing correction system to achieve one or more output effects for tracking a target, guiding a vehicle or a munition and/or illuminating a scene in a particular manner while the platform is moving, including by using a combination of open loop and closed loop processing.
